Proof that shared bedrooms can be beautiful. 🤍 Designing a room for two growing boys was all about finding the balance between beautiful and practical. I wanted it to feel timeless, cozy, and thoughtfully designed, while still giving them plenty of space to play, read, and just be kids. @potterybarnteen made that vision come to life with furniture and details that feel both elevated and built to last. I know this is a room they’ll love for years, and honestly… I think I love it just as much. 🥹 Comment SHOP to get a DM with all their room + furniture details ad 2026PBTSummerDecorating LoveMyPBTeen LTKHome LTKKids LTKmomlife

It was the scalloped corners for me 🤎

Fell hard for this Emmeline rug, and I couldn’t pass up the horse pillow or the brown velvet Liza lumbar. Such a pretty collection for Fall from @chrislovesjulia x @loloirugs.

More color. More pattern. More things that make me smile when I walk into a room. 💙

The second I saw this Blue Horse print from @urbangardenprints, I knew I wanted him in our dining room. I love how much personality he brought to a wall that never quite felt finished.

Blue Horse by @jennywestenhofer for @urbangardenprints

When I saw this rug had both stripes and florals I knew I had to grab it.

It feels subtle from across the room, but still has so much pattern and detail up close. Exactly what I wanted in here.

Rug shown is the @magnolia by @joannagaines × @loloirugs Winslet rug in Denim/Ivory with the Meredith + Isola pillows

The coziest rug - it is unbelievably soft and instantly makes a space feel warm and inviting.

We have the 6-pelt option here and could not love it more 🤌

I found the cutest way to keep all the artwork 🥹

If your kids are anything like mine, they make approximately 400 new pictures a day and obviously want to display every single one 😂 We were running out of places to put it all, and this empty hallway wall was just begging for something.

I found these arched pin boards and I LOVE them. Each arch is one big piece, they literally just stick to the wall, and there’s no drilling or damage 🙌🏻 It took me no time to hang them and now they have their own little gallery where they can add and switch out their artwork whenever they want.

Honestly one of those little things that made such a difference — and they’re so proud of it 🥹

A little more color and coziness in the living room just in time for fall 🍂

I chose the Penrose rug in Lagoon Beige from the new @heidicaillierdesign x @joonloloi collection and I love it even more in this room than I thought I would. The colors are so soft and pretty, it’s incredibly soft under bare feet, and it made the whole room feel instantly warmer and more collected.

Never in my life did I think I’d get this excited about watering plants… but here I am. 🪴✨

Every time I add one more little touch, the garden feels a little more like the one I’ve always imagined.

The birdhouses, wind spinner, and solar path lights from @PlowAndHearth just fit here. They add the sweetest little bit of whimsy, and somehow make me want to linger outside a little longer.

This rug is still one of my favorite details in our bedroom. It is unbelievably soft and holds up so well - even with kids and pets.

#LTKOver40 #LTKHome

Okay but tell me why adding ONE rug suddenly made my unfinished greenhouse feel like an actual room. 🥹

She’s definitely still a work in progress 🔨 but I couldn’t wait to see this rug in here, and now I’m even more excited to finish the rest.

Rug is the @loloirugs Dawn rug in the Natural color (7’8” x 10’), and I honestly think it’s perfect for this space. It has that pretty woven look, but it’s made for both indoor and outdoor use, which felt like the best fit for a greenhouse.

I linked it in my LTK if anyone else has been looking for an indoor/outdoor rug like this 🤌

Congratulations… it’s a girl 💕

Matching in @ivycityco 🧺✨

I’m still in shock over this porch transformation 💛 @veradek #ad

It used to feel so small—no storage, no personality… just kind of there.
And now it actually works for our family of 6 (and somehow stays clean for more than five minutes 🙃)

I added the Veradek Demi planter trio in the terracotta shade for some life + color, two Brixton hanging window boxes, and the everything storage box—which finally gave us a place to stash all the random outdoor things (from gardening tools to toys… it seriously lives up to its name 🤌)

this little corner ended up being one of my favorite spaces in the house 🤍

the round rug made such a difference — it warmed everything up and made it feel finished without feeling too formal. something about having a rug that actually fits the shape of the space just works

today is the last day of the Amazon Spring Sale ✨ so if you’ve been eyeing a new rug, now’s the time

this one is from the @loloirugs × @chrislovesjulia collection: Rosemarie (ROE-01 Sage/Blush) – 7’9” round

Our patio door was so boring before… completely see-through, zero privacy, and honestly just felt unfinished.

I kept wishing we could swap it for a vintage door, but that just wasn’t in the budget.

So I tried this window film from @artscape_design_studio (we used the Victoria pattern) and I’m still not over how good it looks.

It gives that leaded glass look, adds privacy, and still lets all the light in (just without the blinding glare)… and the craziest part is you can actually feel the texture of the design. It looks so luxe.

It was also way easier than I expected… I did the whole thing in about 10 minutes.

If you’ve been wanting more privacy but don’t want to lose natural light, this is such a good option.

I’ve always loved rugs that feel like they’ve been part of a home for years 🤍

This one instantly gave our living room that warm, vintage-inspired feel — the colors pull in just enough warmth without feeling busy, and somehow it makes the whole space feel cozier the second you walk in.

It’s the @loloirugs Margot Ocean/Spice Area Rug with CloudPile, and I genuinely can’t get over how soft it is. Like… sink-your-feet-in soft. No shedding and kid-and-pet friendly 🤌

It’s part of the President’s Day sale right now — I linked it in my LTK 🤍

The before and after I have been dreaming about since we first bought our house.

This wall used to be the most awkward, forgotten spot in our living room… the only focal point was an old green shade that never felt like it belonged.

When we remodeled, I designed this little library wall and reading nook (still dreaming of adding a ladder one day and fully living out my Belle dreams 🥀📚). We added a @rollishades motorized Tulum Soft Fold shade in the color Salt with a light-filtering thermal lining so the window would feel just as custom and intentional as the built-ins.

The filtered light and one-touch control feel a little magical. Truly my dream place to sit and read a book. ✨

#LTKmomlife #LTKValentine #LTKKids

Some seasons of motherhood don’t leave a lot of room for grand gestures.
And honestly, we don’t need them.

Sometimes it’s the small things that make us feel seen—fresh flowers on the counter, a quiet moment in the kitchen, a reminder that someone thought about you.

These @rosaholics roses made everyday life feel a little more special.
And that feeling? It lingers.

Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to be overcomplicated.
Just thoughtful. 🤍

I found the world’s coziest rug ☁️
And now this little corner of our bedroom finally makes sense.

We removed the large rug from under our bed but still wanted something cozy here—and this six-pelt sheepskin rug from @overlandsheepskin completely transformed the space.

It’s unbelievably soft, looks so luxe, and has become our favorite spot to sit in the mornings while getting dressed.
My husband said it feels “too nice for us,” which honestly feels like the highest compliment 😂

This window wall finally feels complete. 🤍

We went with the Lesley Custom Linen No-Drill Roman Shades in Ivory from @curtarra_curtains — inside mount, cordless, with a white cotton lining. We used four panels across our great room and the fit is so clean.

No drilling, no cords, and they let in the prettiest filtered light while still giving privacy. I installed all four myself in under 15 minutes, which honestly still surprises me.

One of those upgrades that instantly elevates the whole space.

Same room. A completely different season of life. Swipe for the before ✨

When we bought this house it was a boring 1990s ranch. But the bones were good, and it had some land. I told my husband I wanted it to feel like a modern European cottage meets Nancy Meyers style. I couldn’t love it more 🥹
